Ninth Lock House
Cathaoirleach's Business.
Given An Bord Pleanála's recent decision to APPROVE the Clonburris Strategic Development Zone, Proposed SDZ Planning Scheme, would the Manager set out the time-scale for making the final Planning Scheme available, incorporating the thirty modifications as set out by An Bord Pleanála, and what will the overall impact on the Clonburris Planning Scheme be as a result of these thirty modifications? In addition what recent discussions have taken place, if any, between the Local Authority and Developer(s) and/or Government Departments and/or Agencies in relation to the time-scale for development to commence at Clonburris, particularly in view of the drastic down-turn in our economy and the bearing that is having on the construction industry in Ireland?

That the Manager would give the local community in Lucan assurances, especially the community in St. Finian's Estate, Lucan, that what was the local shop in St. Finian's Estate will not be re-opened as a shop. The local community in St. Finian's has been subjected to year's of the most severe anti-social behaviour, much of which has emanated form this shop in years gone by. Would the Manager set out in detail his plans for the alternative proposals for these premises, and would the Manager agree to provide for inclusive local consultation with the St. Finian's Residents Association, details of personnel I can provide to the Manager.
The Lucan Clondalkin Area Committee calls on the Manager to exercise the right of this Council to act on behalf of the citizens and restrict access to the laneway between Kennelsfort Road and the Coppice by the erection of a locked gate at either end and that the Council provide each household that has access to the laneway with a key under a licence to be drawn up thus enabling only those who have a legitimate right to be in the laneway access to the laneway and that the Council continue to maintain the laneway as heretofore as the laneway is used as a rat run by motorists, is being used for fly tipping and the option of closing it as a right of way as provided for in the act is not feasible and the residents concerned have already petitioned to have unauthorised traffic excluded and have requested that the Council act on their behalf and have indicated that they would be prepared to contribute to the costs, and that a realistic timescale be set for this work to be completed. This is but one of a number of such laneways in the Palmerstown Area and can be used as a pilot project for some of the others. These laneways form an integral part of the residential amenities and were designed to give access to the back gardens of terraced houses. However, these laneways have become the focus of all kinds of anti social activity and a constant source of worry and stress to adjacent residents and as they now stand are not the asset they were intended to be. After more than 15 years of exploring options it is now time to act on behalf of the long suffering residents.

That this committee requests the manager to make contact with Maplewood Homes asking them to carry out relevant repairs on Beechdale way as a burnt out car caused damage to the road and as its not in the control of the council the developer is still responsible and the matter be discussed.
